Summary: | What if the games we played as children were the greatest gift to helping us achieve more today? Before stage fright, impostor syndrome, emotional baggage, and the other dubious gifts of adulthood, everyone pretended to be a superhero, a favorite athlete, an inspiring entertainer, a nurse, a firefighter, a lion, or whatever else captured our imaginations. And yet, that natural creativity is slowly squeezed out of us because we think it's childish or it's "time to grow up." Now Todd Herman-backed by scientific research and countless stories from the real world-will show us how to tap into the human imagination to unleash new versions of ourselves, ready-made to kick ass. |
